Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
This product requires no complicated setup. Simply twist the cap to open, and the doe-foot applicator is ready for use. Ensure your face is clean, moisturized, and primed if desired before application.
Compatibility
The NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer is designed to be highly compatible with a wide range of makeup products:
- Foundations: It blends seamlessly over liquid, cream, and powder foundations. Apply it either before or after foundation, depending on your preferred technique and the level of coverage required.
- Primers: Works well with most facial primers, helping to create a smooth canvas and enhance longevity.
- Setting Powders and Sprays: Can be set with both translucent and colored setting powders, and also benefits from a finishing or setting spray for a locked-in look.
- Skin Types: Suitable for most skin types, including dry, normal, combination, and sensitive. Individuals with very oily skin may find extra setting beneficial to prevent creasing.
Care and Maintenance
Proper care ensures the longevity and hygiene of your concealer:
- Storage: Store the concealer in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. This helps maintain the product's consistency and effectiveness.
- Close Cap Tightly: Always ensure the cap is securely closed after each use to prevent the product from drying out and to protect it from air exposure.
- Applicator Hygiene: Avoid touching the doe-foot applicator directly to active blemishes or open sores to prevent contamination. If you need to conceal a breakout, dispense a small amount of product onto the back of your hand or a clean palette, then pick it up with a clean brush.
- Shelf Life: Refer to the 'period after opening' (PAO) symbol, typically a jar icon with a number followed by 'M' (e.g., 6M, 12M), on the product packaging. This indicates how long the product is safe to use after opening.
